They do not require water because the stamen releases male gametophytes that are carried by the wind to the egg in the carpel.

Flower color in snapdragons results from the amount of the pigment anthocyanin in the petals. Red flowers are produced by plants
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The genotypes found in the F2 offspring will be An1An1, An1An2 and An2An2.

Explanation:

In the example given in the question, the color of the petals of snapdragon flowers are given with the An1 allele having full activity and the An2 allele being the null allele. For the F1 offspring, two snapdragon flowers are crossed, one with red petals which is An1An1 and one with ivory petals which is An2An2. All the genotypes for the F1 offspring will result in An1An2.

Then using this F1 offspring, the F2 offspring is found and the genotype of the F2 offspring will be An1An1 / An1An2 / An1An2 / An2An2.

So the genotypes found in the F2 offspring will be An1An1, An1An2 and An2An2. One red petal snapdragon, 1 ivory snapdragon and 2 pink snapdragons.

I hope this answer helps.

What are biofilms, how do they form, and how can biofilms complicate treatment of infectious diseases?
Elis [28]

Answer:

<u>Biofilms are</u> defined as complex communities of microorganisms that grow embedded in a self-produced polymeric organic matrix and adhered to a living or inert surface, and that can present a single microbial species or a range of different species

Explanation:

The bacteria that form the biofilm are in what is called sessile form, exhibiting a phenotype different from those of the same cells in unicellular or free form (planktonic form) with respect to the growth rate and gene transcription (Donlan, 2002 ).

<u> The formation</u> of biofilms is an adaptive strategy of microorganisms, since growth in biofilm offers four important advantages: (I) protects microorganisms from the action of adverse agents, (II) increases the availability of nutrients for their growth, (III) facilitates the use of water, reducing the possibility of dehydration and (IV) enables the transfer of genetic material (DNA). All of these circumstances can increase your survival capabilities. As a consequence, <u>the usual methods of disinfection or the use of antibiotics are often ineffective against biofilm bacteria</u>.

In addition to the risk of contamination, the development of biofilms can interfere with different processes and cause damage to the equipment. In drinking water systems the formation of biofilms can obstruct the pipes reducing their speed and transport capacity causing an increase in energy consumption. The formation of biofilm in heat exchangers and cooling towers can reduce heat transfer and as a consequence its efficiency in the process. The formation of persistent biofilms on metal surfaces can cause corrosion due to acid production by bacteria.

Why would it be hard to find the CO2 level if the light intensity were very low? HELP!!!!
drek231 [11]
If CO2 was in very small amounts then it would be the limiting factor of photosynthesis, this means the process will take place at a much slower rate because it is lacking one of the raw materials it needs for the process to occur. To find the optimum light intensity you really need all other factors to be at optimum levels or in abundance.

Explanation:

Pyramidal decussation may be defined as the the fibers that cross the corticospinal tract from one side to the junction and the other side to the central nervous system.

Pyramidal decussation is the point at the junction between spinal cord and medulla. The motor fibers crosses the midline from the medullary pyramids.
